Why Join NAFI?

Flight Instructors are the most important professionals in aviation.

Whether part time, full time, independent, or associated with a flight school, the instructor fosters student motivation, ensures quality of learning, and instills safety at all levels. At the National Association of Flight Instructors, we have developed programs to recognize and support that essential role. NAFI is the world’s only organization dedicated exclusively to flight instructors and the critical part they play in aviation.

• NAFI realizes the professionalism and pride that go into your work. In addition, we truly understand the importance of providing top-quality benefits tailored to meet specific CFI needs. The NAFI code of ethics professes only the highest level of quality education, and our membership benefits package was assembled in direct response to what flight instructors said they needed most. Here are just a few of the many benefits all NAFI members receive:
• Our exclusive publication, NAFI Mentor. This monthly magazine is filled with technical information, instructional tips, and news of association happenings. You will want to three-hole punch each issue and keep it for future reference!
• Access to the Flight Instructor Home Page. NAFI brings you the finest flight instructor site on the Internet! With free listing on our searchable database of NAFI members, we can lead students right to your telephone! 
• Eligibility to apply for the MASTER INSTRUCTOR accreditation. This program, cited by the FAA as of great value to aviation safety, is available to all NAFI members and offers visibility and prestige as an outstanding instructor. Enhancing the status of flight instructors, the MASTER INSTRUCTOR inspires participation and leadership in all aspects of aviation education. Call or write with your new membership application and ask for a Master CFI info packet!
• Flight instructor liability insurance. NAFI offers the industry's best source of instructor liability protection.
• Membership items for you to display. These include a lapel pin, luggage tag, decals, and several certificates showing your level of professionalism.
• Numerous product discounts and opportunities.

You deserve more than benefits. You deserve a higher level of recognition. As a professional instruction organization, NAFI has created several new recognition programs. The Flight Instructor Hall of Fame, located at the EAA Air Adventure Museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, is a perfect example. Our membership gold and silver identification card program, which recognizes instructors with longevity in the field of instructing, is another. Instructor recognition brings a higher level of appreciation and awareness to all flight instructors.

NAFI is your representative where it counts! By actively participating in government-hosted Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committees (ARACs), extensively commenting on Notices to Proposed Rulemaking (NPRMs), and holding seats on industry-hosted flight training committees, NAFI is the only organization effectively representing flight instructor interests in Washington and elsewhere. We carry the torch that supports your best interests.

Your membership fee buys a lot! Member benefits, the 20% discount on ASA products, and the 20-50% discount (plus free shipping) on Gleim Products, the savings on just one or two purchases will pay for your membership! But it doesn't stop there. The NAFI full-time staff is always available to provide members with the kind of support and recognition they deserve and want.

There has never been a better time to join NAFI!
